Please excuse my ignorance, but what group is ABSE?

"Colin Horsley"
** ABSE = " alt.binaries.schematics.electronic "Not available with Google Groups or a few yank ISPs that have banned all " alt " NGs.

& iinet who stopped carrying binary ng's some time ago...... :(

** The ABSE pic is here:" ** The attached pic is of a 6800uF, 80 volt, 85C electro of recent Taiwanese manufacture, which has not been subjected to abuse in any way. When removed from the equipment last Friday, it was completely open circuit and with the top slightly bulged.
When the seal was broken, it hissed like a can of beer does when you pull the ring and brown liquid bubbled out the opening.
The brand is " Su'scon " - no kidding.
So the "Capacitor plague " is still with us.

Thanks. Westnet newsgroup only has "alt.binaries.sex*****" then it goes to " alt.binaries.sleazemovies" No "schematics" in sight.

Pretty gross.

a bit like "Mean-Well" SMPS's
Yep, that's why I can't look there.

Cheers Colin
yuck.
lucky it didnt explode. That would have made a mess.
Many people can't easily access ABSE, that's why it's a bit silly to post there these days. Would be much better if everyone simply posted images to a web based photo host or other such site, then *everyone* can see them. Most ISP's include your own web space for free.
BTW, limited access to ABSE is available on the web here:

I reckon it the whole batch is involved.

You do know that "schematics" is before "sex" in an alphabetically sorted list, don't you? If it didn't, most guys would never find it. :)

You got me! The first item in "alt.binaries.s* " is "alt.binaries.seduction" Colin
Marginally half sane people like us are far more fun. ;-)

Exactly. And we design better stuff, too.
That just stands to reason.

That's John's reasoning for you. He certainly designs more saleable stuff than I do, but if I was as blindly optimistic about the quality of the stuff I designed I might have been able to sell more of it.

Sounds like a pretty sorry NNTP server. :(
The Usenet Replayer website lets you veiew most alt.binaries.schematics.electronic messages.

Wrong, as usual. The way to design great stuff is to be absolutely paranoid about its quality, and to trust nothing... not parts, not datasheets, not PCB fabricators, not code, not observations, not measurements, not people, and especially not yourself.
What, you find that inconsistent with a determination to sell mind-rippingly good, insanely priced, perfect-out-the-door products to the most demanding customers on the planet? Of course you do, you're sane.

y,
Agreed. My problem is that you seem to place too much trust in the proposition that you have suceeded; you trust yourself too much.
I don't find any inconsistency in your means to achieve the result you are striving for; I just worry about the level of quality control that lets you be so optimistic about the results you claim to have achieved.
Clearly too sane for my own good.
